One of these two.
A random image.
looking for sunny periods
I like shells
There to remind me
An old photo remains
can't click on this one yet (you can now - i found a reference to fourteen)
Who am i? What's going on?
A long and (not) winding road.
Always leads to my door.
Only ever meant to last the night...
One I Took Earlier.
an eye on autumn

Countdown to the End of a Brutal Regime
Mubarek gone --
What took so long?
Egypt free --
Now we shall see.
The protesters showed much
Courage in the Square.
For Eighteen days, I said a solemn prayer.
Keep them safe and families fed.
Hope arrived, as dictactor fled.
80 billion from his people he stole.
A man of big greed and little soul.
Lacking worldly comforts, they lived in poverty,
But HE could never strip them of their dignity
The chance, he asks, to die in his 'beloved' Egypt is his hope
If lucky, in his sleep rather than at the end of a rope.
Celebrate all night, friends, tomorrow's time to rest.
The PEOPLE prevail, and I, from here, wish them the best.

PS - Just watching the news coverage in the Square - the singing and the dancing - very moving after a very tense week.
I hesitated today Mary, Egypt was in my first draft of 18 words, then i went for a run in the sun and it felt sooooo good i changed track.
So i'm glad you've stepped in with this excellent effort.
I hope also you clicked on the Friday (link).
Thanks Chris -- nice lead into Valentine's Day celebrations!
Not doing much running here, more scurrying, I'd say, from place to place to avoid the minus 24 degree cold.
Still those Egyptians have managed to heat things up:-)
